Abstract

We have computed Hα line profiles with the aim of contributing to the diagnosis of the atmospheric structure in Be-type stars. We consider an expanding atmosphere with a chromospheric temperature distribution. The radiative transfer equation has been treated rigorously in a spherically symmetric medium, applying the comoving-frame method. The simultaneous solution of the statistical equilibrium equations was carried out for a hydrogen atomic model considering six energy levels plus continuum
